Milnthorp was Merritt Centennials property for a brief time in October of last season after being acquired from Victoria along with D Brett Kolins (92) and future considerations for F Dustin Johnson (90). The Cents flipped Milnthorp and the rights to D Austin Baecker (92) to the AJHL`s Grande Prairie Storm for G Lino Chimienti (91).

In case you’re wondering how Milnthorp ended up with the Spruce Kings, it’s because he was part of the future considerations in the trade that saw F Derek Henderson (90) go to the Storm at the deadline last season.

Trevor Fitzgerald, meanwhile, became PG property as the future considerations from the Ryan Renz deal with Vernon. In fact, Fitzgerald had been suspended by the Spruce Kings for refusing to report to them.

The Nanaimo Clippers have acquired Forward Trevor Fitzgerald as well as Defensemen Josh Bryan and Scott Milnthorp from The Prince George Spruce Kings, in exchange for Jesse Ursic, Leo, Myles and Gerry Fitzgerald.

The Nanaimo Clippers would like to thank Jesse, Leo, Myles and Gerry for their contribution to our Club and would like to welcome Trevor, Josh and Scott to the Community of Nanaimo.
